Culling its rank from diverse Norwegian contraband metallic element luminaries, Arcturus has been an evolving project for institution keyboardist Steiner "Sverd" Johnsen and drummer Hellhammer (likewise known as a member of Mayhem, one of the about infamous Norwegian contraband metallic element ensembles). The results of this newer endeavor have been quite fruitful, and with their full-length debut, Arcturus proven that they are some of the best black metallers of the late '90s. The mathematical group initially began as a collaborationism between Sverd and Hellhammer, and their debut 7", "My Angel," was released on a modest underground label in Europe. Following this, the duet enlisted Ulver vocaliser Garm and Emperor axeman Samoth. The quartet's mini-album Constellation was recorded without bass tracks, an strange feat in the alloy existence. Samoth was later incarcerated for unrelated criminal activities, and so the chemical group brought in deuce new members, bassist Skoll (from Ved Buens Ende) and guitar player Carl August Tidemann (Tritonus). They recorded Arcturus' full-length debut Aspera Hiems Symfonia for Century Black, garnering them more than attention and critical praise. Their second piece, La Masquerade Infernale, has only been released in Europe so far. Cloaked Masters followed in 1999.
